Cambridge United vs Crawley Town LIVE updates: Follow all the action from the Abbey

Welcome to the Abbey for the first of the Easter games against Crawley Town.

The season is very much drawing to a close, but there's still plenty to talk about - from the accounts to the managerial situation.

Indeed, it sounds very much like Joe Dunne wants to extend his stay at the club beyond the end of the season - and a win today would do his chances no harm.

And it'll be interesting to see who makes the team today. Dunne said that he has no fear of mixing things up, so the likes of Dimitar Mitov and Leon Davies could make a rare start.

So stay tuned for all the build-up, action and reaction from this one.

Here's how we rated the U's

Here's what the gaffer made of things

16:56

FT: Cambridge United 3-1 Crawley Town

Apart from the start of the second half, that was as comfortable an afternoon at the office as the U’s could have hoped for. George Maris was superb, Dave Amoo got a lot of minutes into his legs and, most importantly, the U’s picked up their first win in over a month. More reaction to come, so stay tuned as we sift through it!

16:50

90+: FIVE minutes added on

And George Maris has, obviously, been named man of the match.

16:48

87: Uche has done really well since coming on

He’s headed away two corners now and, generally, been very solid defensively.

16:46

86: Crawley corner

A late rally from Crawley who have won a corner. The pitch is literally saturated by this point.

16:43

83: Maris off, O'Neil on

Probably a good sign when your own players are given you an ovation. He’s been fantastic today.

16:39

ATT: 4131 (199)

Decent crowd at the Abbey!

16:35

76: U's sub

Billy Waters on for Dave Amoo - who has put in a very good shift indeed.

16:35

74: Crawley free kick

It’s another decent one from Payne but no one can get on the end of it. It comes back out to the midfielder, who has another cross rather acrobatically blocked for a corner by the diving Ikpeazu.

16:33

73: Ibehre off Uche on

16:32

71: Uche is warming up...

16:30

70: Looks like he's fine to continue

We restart with a drop ball - which is knocked back for Forde.

16:28

68: Break in play

Brown absolutely smacks a shot straight off a Crawley’s players face. He amazingly gets straight up - before falling straight back down. Thankfully he’s sitting up right and talking, so hopefully it’s nothing serious.

16:27

66: SAVE!

Amoo absolutely drills a shot at Morris which is well saved.

16:24

65: Amoo wins the corner

16:23

63: Crawley free kick

And it’s a very good one - with Payne ball from around 30-yards finding Roberts - whose header goes narrowly over the crossbar.

16:21

60: Maris involved, again

He’s been absolutely brilliant today. Make no mistake, Brown still had an awful lot to do and took and showed great skill to take it round Morris, but ball through to him was inch perfect.

16:19

59: GOAL GOAL GOAL!

Jevani Brown is very good at football.

16:16

56: End to end!

Ibehre breaks and the move ends with Maris curling a beautiful shot from way outside the area - with only the keeper making a stunning save to tip it onto the post.

16:15

55: VERY close

A great ball from right right was met by Jordan Roberts - who deflects his header off Halliday and inches wide of the post. The corner comes to nothing.

16:14

54: U's corner

Another decent ball from the Maris. It bobbles around in the area and no one can quite get on the end of it. The rain is really coming down now - a bit of a puddle by the corner flag.

16:12

52: CLOSE!

Well, it was nearly the perfect response. A wonderful free kick from Maris is met by Ibehre - who puts his header straight at Morris.

16:11

51: That makes things a little bit interesting

It’ll be interesting to see how the U’s respond now. Put themselves under a bit of needless pressure with that penalty.

16:10

49: GOAL!

Josh Payne converts the spot kick!

16:09

49: PENALTY!

Ibehre clatters Yorwerth and the referee points to the spot.

16:09

48: Keeper taking one too many touches

Still going for this playing it out the back tactic. Morris is well outside his area, with Ibehre haring down, but is pretty nonchalant about the whole thing and knocks the ball away.

16:06

46: It is Jimmy Smith who was subbed off

16:05

45: Back underway!

U’s attacking towards the NRE.

16:05

The players are back out!

It’s still absolutely teeming down. Crawley have made a change - with the very live blog friendly named Boldewjin - not entirely sure who for yet.
